Led by Pablo van der Lugt, author of The Timber Truth, this session will provide clear, evidence-based answers to some of the most common questions and misconceptions around timber construction, sustainable forestry, timber availability, climate impact and circularity.
The session will provide a clear, evidence-based view of the role timber can play in low-carbon construction, while addressing the questions and concerns that often shape decision-making.
In this session, you will learn about:
– the carbon footprint of mass timber buildings
– biogenic carbon storage
